Men fall in love faster than women?

Ran across these articles: Men Fall in Love Faster Than Women LONDON, August 16, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- Soppy guys fall in love faster and more often than women, new research suggests. Most men say they know whether they are in love after just one date and the rest are likely to know within three. Nearly a quarter said they had believed in love at first sight and knew whether a girl was 'the one' within seconds. Women, on the other hand, are more indecisive on the issue, consulting with friends and family and waiting at least a month before making their minds up.

At this point, we should be able to know if a woman is someone that we can spend the rest of our lives with. We've been playing the birds and bees for a long time now, we know when we mess up and we know what we should be doing in a relationship. To the casual observer, it might seem like these two thoughts contradict one another, but they actually support one another. I've said for years – to the huffs, sighs, teeth sucking, and generally dismissive eye rolls of many women – that men fall in love faster than women. The race isn't even close. (Supporting my own personal observations on the subject, a recent study also found that single men are 33% more likely than women to believe in "Love at First Sight.") In my observations, it doesn't take men very long to figure out where a woman falls in his life. I have married friends, and I have friends that will probably never get married, but when I look back on all our years of combined experiences, it was always pretty clear which women these men were seriously and emotionally involved in and which women they were not. Further, this was evident early on or as BGAE stated above, about 30 days or less. In contrast, many women will say this doesn't mirror their experiences because they've invested time in men for months, years, or even decades who "still don't know what they want" from a relationship. I guess anything is possible but that is not very probable. What makes more sense? A man who is perfectly capable of making hundreds of decisions each day is somehow incapable of making one decision about one woman at least one time? I doubt it. In fact, the absence of a decision is itself a decision. In other words, a man who doesn't know what role a woman plays in his life is simultaneously deciding that the woman is not important enough to even determine a role for her. Honestly, this isn't wrong as long as it's clearly conveyed. Unlike women, most men decide they're ready to be in a serious commitment then look for a woman they're willing to commit to; whereas, women tend to already know they want a serious commitment before they even meet the man they'll eventually commit to.

Or is it a slow build? For me, in relationships that went on to be meaningful there was a sort of instant chemistry, a hidden knowledge of... something. I know for some it may have taken a long time...
